Tricky choice
June 18, 2023|Mr. Six Star, Aurora, NC

There are many mower blades out there at lower prices but all (that i found) them have a 5 pointed star spindle hole.My Sears mower has a 6 pointed star and Sears Direct seems to be the only sourse. I only learned this by ordering the wrong one once and almost a second time. It wound help if this distinction was added to the product info.

Spring steel versus over the counter blades
August 17, 2021|Brian, Ma

For a few years I've made the mistake and purchased blades that fit my craftsman mower but we're not original manufacture equipment. Aside from the correct contours for example mulching lift and cut the original equipment for craftsman the blade flexes and is approximately an inch wider the lifting cut and bagging with the original blades far exceeds any blade bought anywhere

Easier than I thought.
March 20, 2021|JJ13, Ponchatoula,La.

To pull the deck out remove the old blades ,install the new ones and reinstall the deck took 45 minutes.You need a wooden block to hold the blades for loosening and tightening.
